Administrative Appeals

A student placed on academic suspension or academically dismissed may appeal to the College Dean. Students who wish to appeal must do so in writing within thirty days of notification. The decision of the Dean is final.

The appeal must be prepared in writing and be accompanied by appropriate support documents. Reasons that may be acceptable for appeal consideration are:

1. A serious illness or an accident of the student. This will normally require a medical statement from a licensed physician.
2. Death, serious illness or injury in the immediate family (parent, siblings, children or spouse). A licensed physician’s statement or appropriate death certificate will be required.
3. Other extenuating circumstances may be acceptable and will be considered.
